A possible detection of radio pulses from Geminga at 103 MHz
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report here a possible detection of weak pulsed radio emission from Geminga on 1997 June 19, as evident from the observed power spectrum and the folded pulse pro®le. The observations were made with the Rajkot radio telescope at 103 MHz. Our observations show the presence of an average pulse strength at about 1 Jy level, with a pulse period of 237.10 ms and an interpulse of comparable intensity at 0.5 phase.

Upper limits on the pulsed radio emission from the Geminga pulsar at 35 & 327 MHz
We report here our observations at 35 MHz and 327 MHz made in the direction of the γ–Ray pulsar Geminga. Based on the observed absence of any significant pulsed emission from this source above our detection thresholds at the two frequencies, we obtain useful upper-limits for the average flux to be 75–100 mJy at 35 MHz, and 0.2–0.3 mJy at 327 MHz. We discuss a few possible reasons for the “radio...
متن کاملUpper Limits on the Continuum Emission from Geminga at 74 and 326 MHz.
We report a search for radio continuum emission from the gamma-ray pulsar Geminga. We have used the VLA to image the location of the optical counterpart of Geminga at 74 and 326 MHz. We detect no radio counterpart. We derive upper limits to the pulse-averaged flux density of Geminga, taking diffractive scintillation into account. We find that diffractive scintillation is probably quenched at 74...

متن کاملA Vla Search for the Geminga Pulsar: a Bayesian Limit on a Scintillating Source
We derive an upper limit of 3 mJy (95% conÐdence) for the Ñux density at 317 MHz of the Geminga pulsar (J0633]1746). Our results are based on 7 hours of fast-sampled VLA data, which we averaged synchronously with the pulse period using a period model based on CGRO/EGRET gamma-ray data. Our limit accounts for the fact that this pulsar is most likely subject to interstellar scintillations on a ti...
متن کاملOn the optical pulsations from the Geminga pulsar
We present a model for generation mechanisms of the optical pulsations recently detected from the Geminga pulsar. We argue that this is just a synchrotron radiation emitted along open magnetic field lines at altitudes of a few light cylinder radii (which requires that Geminga is an almost aligned rotator), where charged particles acquire non-zero pitch-angles as a result of the cyclotron absorp...
